"Many genes linked to various cancers do not appear to raise the risk of getting cancer after all, according to an analysis of hundreds of studies published on Tuesday.Oops.
The findings highlight the need to exercise caution over the increasing number of studies associating common genetic variations with a range of diseases, said John Ioannidis of the University of Ioannina School of Medicine in Greece.
'The whole thing about genetic variations and links to diseases like cancer are very exciting, but the general public should be quite cautious about jumping to the conclusion that if they have a change in one gene or another they are doomed,' Ioannidis, who led the study, said in a telephone interview.
'Genetic effects are very complex and very subtle and we need to know a lot more before we can make strong recommendations based on genetic profiles.'"
Go here, do what works and shut-out the noise of the MSM and Big Sick Care.
